Ely City will be aiming to reach the last 32 of the FA Vase when they travel to Welwyn Garden City in the third round on Saturday.

Robins manager Brady Stone has already seen his side get past Kirkley & Pakefield, Diss, Northampton ON Chenecks and Wadham Lodge in this season’s competition.

And chairman Bob Button would love to see the team make further progress against their South Midlands League, Premier Division opponents.

“It means a lot to the club,” said Button. “If we could get another step forward it would be good.

“I think they’re quite a strong side so we’ll have to be on our toes.

“We seem to be better in the cup games this season than we are in the league, but we’re still playing the football and I was talking to Brady the other day and I’m sure we’ll start to do better in the league.

“We should have a good number of supporters going down there and that makes a real difference to the players.”

Ely have found the back of the net a total of 13 times in the previous four rounds of the Vase, with Tom Williams leading the way with four goals and Alex Theobald on three.
